Images or evidence (outside of Koch's claim) of the promo's existence do not exist online, leading to the possibility that no official promo was actually produced.


The bootleg label Sangatte Records has released a number of unlicensed CDrs of the performance. Known years of release include [[2004]], [[2008]], [[2009]], and [[2012]], though it is likely that there are others. Different iterations of the bootlegs have minor differences in design and packaging.
